WEDNESDAY WITH HEARTFELT CREATIONS

Move on over spring, and let summer begin…the new Classic Petunia Collection by Heartfelt
Creations has arrived! No flower signifies summer more than the large trumpet shaped
blossom of the gentle petunia! Surround yourself with memories of wandering through
greenhouses filled to the brim with a multitude of varieties in every color, from solids to
variegated, compact to blanketing and of course those showy hanging baskets and container
gardens spilling over with these heat loving flowers! The becomingly illustrated cling stamp sets
found within this collection will have you planning your very own garden themed paper crafts
filled with trailing petunias, bountiful bouquets and lavish petunia filled hanging baskets. Three
sizes of coordinating stamp and petal die cuts will allow you to recreate the ever popular
petunia, making it easy to cut and shape the perfect blossom in the ideal size and color
necessary for any project from handmade cards, scrapbook layouts and even altered art pieces.
A beautiful selection of pre-made card panels and scrapbook pages filled with illustrations of
graceful petunias in hanging baskets, classic Terra Cotta pots and pretty garden scenes
showcasing elegant petunia draped wishing wells and white washed garden benches allow for
ease in creating any garden variety creations. Filled with classic petunia pinks and deep purples
along with pretty leaf like greens, the delicately patterned papers in this charming paper
collection will transport you to your favorite garden plot! So join with us as we usher in the
summer season with the tender flowers of the new Classic Petunia Collection….no fertilizing,
deadheading or watering required! We promise!
